Any ROUTE object submitted for creation in the RIPE Database involving an out of region resource (address space and/or ASN) where that out of region resource does not exist in the authoritative RIR database (has not been allocated or assigned), reject the creation.
The RIPE NCC mirrors the operational data from all the other 4 RIRs. These mirrors are updated daily as well as the RIRs daily stats. It is easy to determine if a resource is registered in the authoritative database.
most other rir irr instances are unused. radb is used. i think there is an altdb which is used.
The following RIR IRR's are in use today: RIPE, APNIC, AfriNIC, ARIN. Three out of four apply a mechanism which ensures a high level of certainty that the route-objects covering the respective RIR's managed space are authenticated in a proper way. ARIN does not validate against their RIR database at this moment. LACNIC has no IRR. I do not agree with "most rir irr instances are unused".
